Bella (DVD)

Have you seen Bella? If so, here’s your invitation to see it again... and again. If not, take this opportunity to experience a rare film. Bella is a powerful and moving, utterly unique story that will lift your spirits and capture your heart, and even better, it’s based on a true story.

International soccer star (Eduardo Verástegui) is on his way to sign a multi-million dollar contract when his career comes to an abrupt and tragic end. A beautiful waitress (Tammy Blanchard), struggling to make it in New York City, discovers something about herself that she's unprepared for. In one irreversible moment, their lives are turned upside down...until a simple gesture of kindness brings them both together, turning an ordinary day into an unforgettable experience.

Bella champions strong father figures as well as a positive portrayal of Latinos in general. Wrapped around this unusual story is a refreshing view of family life and the many ways the characters show unconditional love for one another. Not to mention the mouth-watering cooking scenes that draw them all together in the restaurant and at home. You’ll strain to catch a whiff of the aromas coming from the food that almost seems to be a character itself. Don’t watch this film on an empty stomach! So pick up a copy of Bella (and one for a friend, too!), grab a box of tissues, and get ready for a true-to-life story where the sadness never overwhelms the joy. And, above all, have your faith in fellow man restored.

91 minute run time.
